Hello, and thank you for finding my Patreon page! I
want to inspire more people to grow their own food, take charge of their food
security, and be kind to Mother Earth. That is why I am on Patreon. I started
"Late Bloomer" in 2012 with that same goal, when there were hardly
any web series on the Internet. I've
been an actor for 30 years, and done some writing and directing of short films,
so I wanted a professional production, and connected with three women that became my
post-production team for four years (BFFs for life!). I started paying them out
of my own pocket. I believed with the quality of "Late
Bloomer," HGTV or other platform would pick me up within a year, and I'd
have a camera operator and production funds. Well, the Internet exploded with
content and everyone with a smart phone is uploading garden videos. And I spent all my time learning to garden (I am a late bloomer!) and creating videos. How does a well-produced show stand out?

You have to have millions of views to make
money on YouTube, so I created my Patreon campaign to help me get to the next
level. I am so grateful for every subscriber, view and comment on my
channel. I am buoyed by all the connections I've made worldwide. I just need
more of them to become sustainable, a lot more. To create a show about
sustainability (and how can you be more sustainable than growing your own
food?), I need to have a show that is financially sustainable. I hope you will
become a patron of "Late Bloomer" and help me get there! There will be
cool rewards as I think of them! I promise you inspiring, entertaining, and
educational videos for all ages. Thank you in advance, and I look forward to
making great connections with my patrons! - Kaye

Goals

$118 of $2,000 per month

With $2000 a month, I can pay my professional editor, sound editor and composer for their work on two episodes per month, or 20 per season. That will leave a couple of hundred bucks to pay my sound editor to polish sound on two vlogs, and take a huge financial burden off my pocketbook. Thanks in advance!
